For all those who think this kid is the enemy,.. how many of you have been victim to a school shooting? I would like to think surely someone should have the same perspective before passing judgement.
Go ahead, I'll wait.
It does in no way make them the authority on guns or our rights, emotion does not equal knowledge.
I havent been a victim of a school shooting, but I have been in active combat much of my life and shot at more times than I can count. I currently have a fragment from an AK round still in my leg.
Why am I not anti-gun?
Your statement doesnt even make sense.
Your experience in combat is invalid, because these kids aren't trained to fight back, aren't equipped to fight back, and aren't in an environment that any sane person should expect to have to deal with being shot at. Another false equivalent.

If you're ok with children being manipulated into an agenda in which they demand your civil liberties be removed...
Then carry on and celebrate your false moral superiority on social media.
They aren't being manipulated, they are demanding it for themselves. They don't wish to have to risk their lives just to get an education so the "adults" can keep their penis extensions. Anyone who sees ANYTHING wrong with what these kids are doing has, themselves, got an "agenda".
Last I checked, this event wasn't organized by 14-18 year olds. Moreover, the kids at Stoneman HS and other high schools across the nation that are pro-2nd amendment aren't even allowed to be interviewed. That's an agenda.
To insist that the constitution be altered is an agenda. Defending the document that this nation was founded on is not.
The Amendment process is the formal way to change the Constitution. An amendment may be proposed by two-thirds vote of both houses of Congress or by a convention called by Congress at the request of two-thirds of the state legislatures. Ratification of an amendment takes three-fourths of the states to approve.

'When your old-a** parent is like, :I don’t know how to send an iMessage,: and you’re just like, "Give me the f***ing phone and let me handle it," Sadly, that’s what we have to do with our government,' Hogg told The Outline on Friday.
'Our parents don’t know how to use a f***ing democracy, so we have to.'

This is a false equivalent, because you're comparing something that actually happened to an (unsubstantiated) crackpot conspiracy theory.
Crackpot conspiracy theory huh?
Did you see the display today?
*Snip* removed pictures to save space
Yes, a school shooting happened.
Yes, law enforcement that failed on every level was not held accountable.
Yes, the fingers are pointed at the NRA.
What do you think the goal of today's March was? Are you gonna insist that it wasn't about demanding more gun control laws that chip away at the 2nd amendment?

You want to know why the NRA is being targeted? They are gun industry lobbyist that have GOP members more scared of going against then even a huge group like AARP. Think about that for a second. AARP which is over 600% larger in membership then the NRA but the NRA is seemingly the one group that the GOP are afraid of going against...

Why do you assume anyone saying anything critical of the NRA is out to take away all guns? I am a NRA lifetime member and I think they have gone off the rails crazy with all this gun grabbing bull# they keep pushing.

The gun grabbing BS like trying to pass a bill that makes any gun taking a magazine illegal?
